Thanks!!

Ordered 2 of these guys last night


Gonna order some of these tonight


I got the intake manifolds and water pump/housing/etc all stripped down and ready to be blasted and powder coating. Will have more pics up soon

So it looks like I'm gonna go with a stealth 340 pump. Think that will do for 450whp?

Yes, I agree completely. But the manifold was free, so, I guess I can't complain. It is not permanent, I will be building my own manifold in a month or two.

I'm leaning more towards the Haltech. Adaptronic would be nice because of all the features but I'm not sure of many[read: any] people around here that are fluent in them. I know people that can tune Microtechs all day long on rotaries, I just feel like there are better options out there though.



Yes, it clears. It was in the car with a similar sized precision on it before the motor blew a coolant seal


I may just chop off all the wastegate plumping and go twin 38's, that way it can actually be routed correctly
What area are you in? I've sold a lot of units to the Florida area, and there are plenty of people who can tune them there..

Thanks! Yeah it's the newest one with the fuse box. I've heard a lot of good about them. I will keep that in mind, thanks again!

I'm reasonably close to both Tampa and Orlando

As some may know I ended up getting that silver 28k mile fd off Copart. Decided that since I'm still collecting parts for my motor/single build I would throw the motor and trans in my car so I can at least drive it for a couple months.

Two peas in a pod


Coming out


Annnnd in


Almost finished


Got the interior done for the most part






Off topic, but here's my daily I've been building..



One last parting picture



I still need to button some stuff up on the car. As I said once I get my motor together and my single setup done I'll be pulling the current motor and putting it into another shell
